Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Survival (OS)
From randomization (3 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1) until death due to any cause (maximum up to 51.7 months)

Overall survival was measured from the date of randomization to the date of the participant's death.

Cohort 1: Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)
From randomization (Cycle 1 Day 1, pre-dose) up to 48.2 months

RFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of the reappearance of high-risk disease (high-grade Ta, T1 or carcinoma in situ \[CIS\]), or death, whichever was reported first. Recurrence was assessed using cystoscopy, bladder mapping, urine cytology, and computed tomography (CT)/ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) urogram. Participants who were recurrence-free and alive or had unknown status were censored at the last tumor assessment. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the distribution of overall RFS for each treatment group.

Broad Panel and Pediatric Cohorts: Objective Response Rate (ORR) Based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) as Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC)
Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 [each cycle of 21 days]) up to 4 years

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a complete response (CR), or partial response (PR) based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria. According to RANO criteria whereby overall RANO response is based on both radiographic response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions; PR: sum of products of diameters \[SPD\] decreased by \>=50 percent \[%\] from baseline value) and clinical performance status with steroid dose information.

Core Panel Cohort: Objective Response Rate (ORR) Based on Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) as Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC)
Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1 [each cycle of 21 days]) up to 4 years

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a CR, or PR based on RANO criteria. According to RANO criteria whereby overall RANO response is based on both radiographic response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions; PR: sum of products of diameters \[SPD\] decreased by \>=50 percent \[%\] from baseline value) and clinical performance status with steroid dose information. The core panel cohort is a subgroup of the broad panel cohort with a select panel of pre-specified FGFR markers: FGFR3 mutations (S249C;Y373C; R248C; G370C); FGFR2 mutations (C382R); FGFR3 fusions (FGFR3-TACC3); FGFR2 fusions (FGFR2-BICC1; FGFR2-TACC2).

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
From the date of the first dose of study drug until disease progression or death as assessed up to the last efficacy assessment for disease progression (approximately 2 years)

Objective Response Rate (ORR) is defined as proportion of participants with best objective response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) criteria.

Main Study: Percentage of Participants With Best (Overall) Objective Response
From Cycle 1 Day 1 up to 6 years 2 months

Percentage of participants with best (overall) objective response were reported. Best objective response is defined as the best (overall) objective response a participants achieved during the study in the order of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), where CR and PR were confirmed as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. As per RECIST version 1.1, CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must had reduction in the short axis to less than (\<) 10 millimeters (mm). PR was defined as at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Responders are participants with BOR of CR or PR.

ArmTypeDescription
Cohort 1 (Arm 1A): ErdafitinibEXPERIMENTALParticipants will be screened based on Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitor Clinical Trial Assay (FGFRi CTA) to determine molecular eligibility and participants who meet molecular eligibility criteria will be eligible for full study screening. Participants enrolled in the study (treated with prior anti-programmed cell death protein PD-\[L\] 1 agent) will swallow erdafitinib tablets orally at a starting dose of 8 milligram (mg), once daily for 21 days in a 21-day cycle until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or decision by the investigator to discontinue treatment. Dose adjustment are based on phosphate level and observed toxicity (adverse events \[AEs\]). Participants who enter in Long-term extension (LTE) phase will continue to receive the erdafitinib tablet as per investigator's decision.
Cohort 1 (Arm 1B): Vinflunine or DocetaxelEXPERIMENTALParticipants will be screened based on FGFRi CTA to determine molecular eligibility and participants who meet molecular eligibility criteria will be eligible for full study screening. Participants enrolled in the study (treated with prior anti-PD-\[L\] 1 agent) will receive vinflunine 320 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) as a 20-minute intravenous infusion once every 3 weeks or docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 as a 1 hour intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. Treatment with either agent (choice of investigator) will be administered until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or decision by the investigator to discontinue treatment. Dose adjustments are based on observed toxicities. Participants who enter in LTE phase will continue to receive Vinflunine or Docetaxel until the participant can commercially receive chemotherapy within the local healthcare system.
Cohort 2 (Arm 2A): ErdafitinibEXPERIMENTALParticipants will be screened based on FGFRi CTA to determine molecular eligibility and participants who meet molecular eligibility criteria will be eligible for full study screening. Participants enrolled in the study (no prior treatment with anti-PD-\[L\] 1 agent) will swallow erdafitinib tablets orally at a starting dose of 8 mg, once daily for 21 days in a 21-day cycle until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or decision by the investigator to discontinue treatment. Dose adjustments are based on phosphate level and observed toxicity (AEs). Participants who enter in LTE phase will continue to receive the erdafitinib tablet as per investigator's decision.
Cohort 2 (Arm 2B): PembrolizumabEXPERIMENTALParticipants will be screened based on FGFRi CTA to determine molecular eligibility and participants who meet molecular eligibility criteria will be eligible for full study screening.

Erdafitinib (8 milligram)EXPERIMENTALPrior to interim analysis 1 (IA1), there were 2 treatment regimens: Regimen 1 (10 milligram \[mg\] once daily, 7 days on/7 days off); and Regimen 2 (6 mg once daily for 28 days). Following IA1, Regimen 1 is closed for further enrollment and starting dose of Regimen 2 is increased to 8 mg once daily for 28 days on a 28-day cycle (referred to as Regimen 3). Participants who enrolled in DDI substudy will receive pretreatment with single doses of midazolam (Day -2) and metformin (Day -1).

Frequently asked questions about Erdafitinib

What is Erdafitinib used for?

Erdafitinib is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of urinary bladder neoplasms, urothelial cancer, urothelial carcinoma, and advanced solid tumors. It is also being evaluated in healthy participants for pharmacokinetic studies. The drug is currently in Phase 2 clinical development for oncology indications.

What does Erdafitinib target?

Erdafitinib targets fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), specifically FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and FGFR4. It is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks these receptors, which are involved in cancer cell growth and survival. This mechanism is being investigated in the treatment of urothelial cancer and other solid tumors.

Who makes Erdafitinib?

Erdafitinib is developed by Johnson & Johnson, a company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker JNJ. The drug is being studied in clinical trials for oncology indications, including urothelial cancer and advanced solid tumors.
